Global Hydrogen Peroxide Market Expected to Cross 11 Million Tonnes by 2030
According to
ChemAnalyst report, “Global
Hydrogen Peroxide Market: Plant Capacity, Production, Demand & Supply,
Concentration, Grade, End Use, Sales Channel, Competition, Trade, Customer
& Price Intelligence Market Analysis, 2015-2030”, the
global Hydrogen Peroxide market is expected to grow at a healthy CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period on
account of robust rise in demand from Paper and Pulp industry backed by unprecedented
surge in Hydrogen Peroxide consumption for manufacturing disinfectants utilized
primarily in food processing, packaging and healthcare industries. Demand for
Hydrogen Peroxide has witnessed a remarkable jump in double-digits during the
current scenario of pandemic coronavirus and subsequent rise in awareness among
people for hygiene and improved sanitation is further likely to propel the
demand in the future.

Pulp and Paper
Industry accounts for the highest Hydrogen Peroxide Demand market share owing
to its popular application as a strong bleaching agent and for recycling
applications. While on one hand, the digital revolution has reduced the overall
demand for printing paper, population growth and rising people’s awareness
towards maintaining personal hygiene has pushed up the production of hygienic
paper goods such as diapers and tissue paper. Players anticipate a significant rise
in the demand for paper and board from packaging sector, further fueled by the
soaring e-commerce industry and a change in people’s food consumption habits.
Other major
application of Hydrogen Peroxide contributing to its impressive CAGR is its use
in disinfectant chemicals. Owing to its remarkable anti-bacterial properties, Hydrogen
Peroxide is one of the chemicals flashing on headlines these days as the health
experts across several countries battle to contain the spread of novel coronavirus
which sparked in the Wuhan province of China and soon infected 210 countries
across the globe. Governments across several countries, in their unprecedented
efforts to control contagion, are opting to spray Hydrogen Peroxide based
surface disinfectants in high-risk public areas, such as in hospitals, care
homes, banks and other essential services. Researchers of the US National
Institutes of Health have recently reported the use of vaporized Hydrogen
Peroxide to decontaminate medical-use respirators which can then be reused up to
three times without affecting the equipment’s performance. Moreover, researchers
and medical centers across the globe are also testing the chemical to
decontaminate N95 masks, to combat the potential shortages considering the soaring
masks demand during the pandemic. The global Hydrogen Peroxide market report
has recorded a rise of about 11 per cent in the global Hydrogen Peroxide demand,
by volume, in-line with strong gains in the chemical’s demand outlook since the
outbreak of Covid-19.
Evonik Industries
AG, Solvay S.A., Arkema S.A., FMC Corporation, Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company,
Santoku Chemical Industries Co., Ltd., Nouryon, Kemira Oyj, Hansol Chemical Co.
Ltd., Chang Chun Petrochemical Co., Ltd, OCI COMPANY Ltd., National Peroxide
Limited etc., are some of the leading players operating in the Global Hydrogen
Peroxide market. Anticipating strong boost in the global Hydrogen Peroxide
market, several companies are looking forward to capacity expansions and
acquisitions to get a strong foothold in the Hydrogen Peroxide industry. Recently,
companies like Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company, National Peroxide Limited etc.
have gone for capacity additions in Hydrogen Peroxide business. While the
former has added around 70 KT in United States market, National Peroxide has
added around 55 KT in India. Moreover, Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company has planned
to invest $156 million to construct a production facility for industrial Hydrogen
Peroxide (IHP) in Taiwan. Evonik’s acquisition of PeroxyChem LLC is yet another
big venture into global Hydrogen Peroxide business.
Regionally, Hydrogen
Peroxide market has been segmented into various regions including Asia-Pacific,
North America, South America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. According to
ChemAnalyst report, “Global Hydrogen Peroxide Market: Plant
Capacity, Production, Demand & Supply, Concentration, Grade, End Use, Sales
Channel, Competition, Trade, Customer & Price Intelligence Market Analysis,
2015-2030”, Asia-Pacific region is the leading region
in terms of global Hydrogen Peroxide demand during
2015-2019 and is likely to lead the market during the forecast period. This is
attributed to the strong growth in region’s paper consumption, textile
production, healthcare and personal care industries. North America and Europe are
in league of leading regions generating huge volume demand for the product with
huge capital investments in the sector.
“The global demand for Hydrogen Peroxide is
strongly driven by industrial growth in the pulp and paper industry and
consumption in the disinfectant chemicals industry. Owing to the huge
population base and industrial expansions, regions like APAC are experiencing
rapid growth in their paper demand and hence house wider scope for Hydrogen
Peroxide market growth. Moreover, as healthcare industry eyes on vaporized Hydrogen
Peroxide (VHP) for disinfecting used masks, the global Hydrogen Peroxide
industry is anticipating a major shift in its demand patterns. However, players
believe that lower shelf-life of industrially utilized Hydrogen Peroxide is on
of the key reasons that may hinder the growth of global Hydrogen Peroxide
market. New players venturing into investment in the cleaning chemicals and
pulp and paper sector would help underpin the success of the Hydrogen Peroxide
market for the next 6 years.” said Mr. Karan Chechi, Research Director with TechSci
Research, a research based global management consulting firm promoting
